Programs and Services
The complex issues involved in leading a cultural nonprofit today can challenge even the most skilled management team.
Using our first-hand experience in the arts, and working with faculty from leading business and graduate schools, we
deliver executive-level programs that help you find new opportunities, manage the people
and resources needed for success, and lead your organization toward its mission. Our unique focus on team-centered
education means your team can use NAS programs as off-site working sessions to build shared skills and realize
key organizational change.
The Business of Arts and Culture is our national series of team-centered seminars. Events are presented in
cities around the country, with travel assistance and pay-what-you-can tuition. Every
session is led by top management faculty, and combines new learning with immediate application of the
ideas to your organization. Read more about the seminars or
